PARTS GETTING TO KNOW THE WAFFLE MAKER
BEFORE FIRST USE
A
Main Unit
(Attached power cord not shown)
B Precision Pour Cup
(The exact amount of batter needed will
vary depending on batter type, thickness
and leavening agents used. To prevent
overflow, DO NOT use more than 1 full cup).
Dishwasher safe.
1 Remove and discard any packaging material, stickers, and tape from the unit.
2 Remove all accessories from the package and read this manual carefully. Please pay
particular attention to operational instructions, warnings, and important safeguards to
avoid any injury or property damage.
3 Wash the wae plates with a damp, soapy cloth, then rinse with a clean damp cloth and
dry thoroughly. NEVER submerge the main unit in water.
4 We recommend turning the unit on and running it on shade 5 for 10 minutes without
adding batter. Make sure the area is well ventilated. This removes any packaging residue
and odor traces that may be present. This is completely safe and not detrimental to the
performance of the wae maker.
5 Season the wae plates by applying a thin coat of cooking oil to them. The use of
cooking spray is NOT recommended unless otherwise indicated in recipe provided in the
Inspiration Guide.

USING THE CONTROL PANEL
1 With the wae maker closed, plug it in
and turn it on by adjusting the shade
selection dial to your desired shade
setting. The red LED light will illuminate,
indicating the wae maker is preheating.
2 The green LED light will illuminate when
the unit is preheated. Fill the portion
cup with batter between the minimum
fill line (/ cup) and top rim, then pour
prepared batter into the top spout of
the unit in one quick pour. Cooking will
automatically begin after batter is added
(the red LED light will illuminate to signal
cooking has begun). Batter will not
initially completely fill waffle maker. It will
rise, filling the cavity, through cooking.
3 The wae is done cooking when the
green LED light illuminates and the
unit beeps. Push the lock button to
open the wae maker and remove the
wae with silicone-tipped tongs or
other non-metal cooking utensil.
NOTE: Allow unit to fully preheat prior
to adding batter.
NOTE: Specialty is not available on all models.
NOTE: The exact amount of batter
needed will vary depending on batter
type, thickness and leavening agents
used. We recommend starting with
filling your Precision Pour Cup to the
minimum fill line and adjusting from
there. DO NOT pour more than one full
scoop (1 cup) of batter at one time.
TIP: If your wae batter does not flow
smoothly into the wae maker, mix in a
tablespoon of water or milk and try again.

CLEANING
The unit should be cleaned thoroughly
after every session.
1 Unplug the wae maker and allow it to
cool completely.
2 Using a damp soapy cloth clean the
wae plates, then wipe clean with a
clean damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Do not submerge the main unit in water
or run under a faucet.
3 Avoid using metal cooking instruments
or abrasives while cleaning to avoid
damaging the wae plates.
4 To clean the outside of the wae
maker,use a damp cloth. For best
results, wipe up wet batter before it
dries completely.
5 To clean between the narrow gaps in
the wae maker, ensure it is unplugged
and scrap batter out using a damp cloth
wrapped around the point of a non-
metal utensil.
USING THE WAFFLE MAKER
NOTE: To avoid the risk of overfilling
your wae maker, DO NOT pour more
than 1 cup of batter into the wae
maker at once.

TIPS & TRICKS
Use the portion cup and fill above the
minimum fill line to ensure a full wae
is made.
When cooking multiple waes back to
back, keep the waes warm in an oven set
to 150F.
Using less than / cup of batter may cause
the unit not to recognize that a cooking
cycle should begin.
DO NOT open the wae maker during a
cooking cycle when the RED LED is ON.
It is natural for steam to escape from the unit.
Solid mix-ins are not recommended with
this wae maker.
For batter that is too thick to flow into the
wae maker, mix in 1 tablespoon of water
to the batter and try again. Repeat until
the batter flows smoothly and you get a full
wae.
Uneaten wae can be frozen for up to
3 weeks, if properly stored and reheated
in a toaster.
If food particles leak into drip catch, wipe
them away with a damp, soapy, cloth.
The portion cup can also be used as a 1-cup
measuring cup.
Excess batter will rise, filling the spout.
This batter can removed after the wae is
removed.
